| "Confundido" |
On Tuesdays and Thursdays I take the subway to a nice area
of the city called Palermo. The school I
teach at is only a few blocks away from the zoo and the botanic gardens. Since winter has slowly been making its way
to Argentina, I usually take the subway in the morning; since it’s still dark
when I leave my apartment at 7:15am and usually cold, I have discovered that traveling
underground is warmer. However, by the
time I finish my class and leave my school later in the morning, the sun is out
and I hop on the #55 bus and head back to my apartment in Caballito. For the past few months I have noticed that
Palermo, which is a “hip” area, full of bars, restaurants, cafes, and night clubs,
also has some really interesting urban art.
Avenida Thames, the street the #55 travels down, is riddled with
beautiful, bizarre, and very interesting murals and urban art. Last Thursday I decided that I was going to bring
my camera with me to work and then take a stroll down Thames. Here are some examples of urban art in Palermo:

|
